Deciding to go vegan, or even vegetarian, hell to even resolve to make any dietary change, can be incredibly daunting. There is a plethora of information on the web from places like PETA to instagrammers who post what they eat in a day and shove loads of nutritional ‘information’ down their viewers throats. So, I thought to make things a bit simpler and lend a helping hand to any of my readers who might be wanting to go vegan or who are even just looking for new and (potentially, but maybe not) exciting products to mix up their cooking with that I would post my vegan kitchen staples!
FRUIT
I always have bananas and oranges in my fruit bowl.
Bananas have endless uses from smoothies and cakes to a filling snack on their own.
Oranges can be used to flavour meals (salad dressings, grated in porridge, squeezed in a cake etc) and are full of vitamin C and so refreshing to eat cold on a hot day.
VEGETABLES
Sweet potato, carrot, broccoli. Endless uses. Endless combinations. They are three of my most loved vegetables.
GRAINS
EXTRAS
There you go! Those are my vegan kitchen staples that I without fail always have on hand.
What are some kitchen staples that you guys have and why are they so handy?
